Green & Co. S report ON cotton futures SAYS:
A less active but feveriSh market continued,
and operations were generally conducted with
great cNsition. Ii is believed that the June move
is conducted by an outside element, presumably
from the West, instead OF by local operators as
originally supposed, and the room seems in
ciined to adopt a non committal policy until de-
velOpments are somewhat clearer June went
mp points this morning and lost it all after
ward, but July and August fairly sustained a
smaller advance. the general market ruling

CHICAGO, NAV 6.9The wheat market had a
4
| rather wildly at times. June wheat opened at
SSi4c, sold rapidly y S61sc and then reacted to
S534c aga q ana went up to S514c within the first
| Is or 20 r1ntit es There was a heavy trade by
| the largo BIZ Jses many of whom are pronounced
| bulls, and necessarily buyers Around SEC wheat
| was held quite STEADY, but operations on both
sides wers quite large. Irwin & Green bought
800 019 btsheis Of June of George c. Walker &
| Co ut S6ne6l6c Walker offered the first lot of
| 100. 900 bIi5bels, which was taken by Ware, of
Irwin &. tieen's. Walker then began running
up the offer 10000 bushels at a jump until 1t
aggregated 900 bushels, which went in one
lump at S55SGl86c After that the market
dragged little under the pounding started by
few bears, with the aid of some bulls who
wanted an opportunity TO fill up at q cheap
price and they succeeded in putting the price
back to S51&c, where 1t stood half an hour before
the close of the morning session. The market
then fell off to 25l4c. Shortly after the tap of
the bell for the afternoon session the crowd dis
covered that the short interest was altogether
too large and everybody commenced to scram-
BILE for June wheat. That option went from
651Ic to SGl6c without stopping, and Just before
the close il had little reaction TO S51sc. Clear
ings from the seaboard aggregated 1854, 600 bush
els Charters for 220, 900 bushels were reported
little change. Oats were quiet and featureless.

very little open trading. Lard ruled 60712c
